The name started as a joke boasting about the amount of information the search-engine would be able to search.

After founders- Stanford graduate students Sergey Brin and Larry Page presented their project to an angel investor, they received a cheque made out to 'Google' ...thus the name.

Hotmail

Founder Jack Smith got the idea of accessing e-mail via the web from a computer anywhere in the world. When Sabeer Bhatia came up with the business plan for the mail service, he tried all kinds of names ending in 'mail' and finally settled for hotmail as it included the letters "html" - the programming language used to write web pages. It was initially referred to as HoTMaiL with selective uppercasing.

Hewlett Packard
Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard tossed a coin to decide whether the company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or Packard-Hewlett.

Bob Noyce and Gordon Moore wanted to name their new company ' Moore Noyce'but that was already trademarked by a hotel chain so they had to settle for an acronym of INTegrated ELectronics.

ORACLE

Larry Ellison and Bob Oats were working on a consulting project for the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency). The code name for the project was called
Oracle (the CIA saw this as the system to give answers to all questions or something such). The project was designed to help use the newly written SQL code by IBM. The project eventually was terminated but Larry and Bob decided to finish what they started and bring it to the world. They kept the name Oracle and created the RDBMS engine. Later they kept the same name for the company.

Sony
It originated from the Latin word 'sonus' meaning sound, and 'sonny' a slang used by Americans to refer to a bright youngster.

SUN

Founded by 4 Stanford University buddies, SUN is the acronym for Stanford University Network. Andreas Bechtolsheim built a microcomputer; Vinod Khosla recruited him and Scott McNealy to manufacture computers based on it, and Bill Joy to develop a UNIX-based OS for the computer.

The word was invented by Jonathan Swift and used in his book 'Gulliver's Travels'. It represents a person who is repulsive in appearance and action and is
barely human. Yahoo! Founders Jerry Yang and David Filo selected the name because they considered themselves yahoos.

Why women become sexier after baby birth

Many new mothers can't stop cribbing about their bodies after giving birth, but the sheer 'acceptance' of motherhood actually makes women look sexier post delivery.

According to Dr Fiona Kate Barlow, social psychologist at the University of Queensland, there are plenty of reasons why being a new mother makes a woman more attractive.

"The easiest way to talk about this is to look at the qualities of a mother that we like," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Barlow as saying.

"Mothers fulfil that care-giving role, someone with an incredible font of love for their kids – qualities that are all very attractive.

When that's combined with the sexual aspects of motherhood, like rounded assets and a fuller face, you get that special combination of fertility and that nurturing aspect that we find very desirable," added Barlow.

Add to that a knockout figure and a life that many consider to be "white picket fence-perfect" and you're left with what, to some, is the ultimate package of femininity, Barlow said.
